TLR4 interaction with PIEZO1 facilitates the 5-HT-mediated intestinal motility dysfunction in offspring mice induced by LPS exposure during pregnancy

open access: yesGenes and Diseases
Several factors during pregnancy, such as changes in serotonin (5-HT) levels, can affect intestinal function in offspring mice. The role of 5-HT in regulating intestinal motility after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure during pregnancy is unclear.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Postnatal Growth Patterns and Deviations in Singleton and Twin Infants: A Prospective Cohort Study on Infants Appropriate and Small for Gestational Age

open access: yesPediatric Discovery
Small for gestational age (SGA) and twin infants are at increased risk of growth deviations, but postnatal catch‐up growth (CUG) patterns across singleton, twin, appropriate for gestational age (AGA), and SGA groups remain unclear.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Predicting autism spectrum disorder severity in children based on specific language milestones: a random forest model approach

open access: yesChild and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health
Background Language impairments are among the most prevalent co-occurring conditions in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and delayed language milestones often serve as early developmental warning signs.

PTEN: A master regulator of neuronal structure, function, and plasticity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog on chromosome ten) is a dual protein/lipid phosphatase that dephosphorylates PIP3, thereby inhibiting the AKT/mTOR pathway. This inhibition ultimately decreases protein translation, cell proliferation and cell growth.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Differences in catch-up growth and its relationship to nutritional status between SGA and AGA twins and singletons in the first year after birth: a prospective cohort study

open access: yesScientific Reports
To compare the difference between appropriate for gestational age (AGA) and small for gestational age (SGA) of singleton and twin in terms of catch-up growth (CUG) and nutritional status in the first year after birth through a prospective cohort study. A
